Among the topics they touched on were playing special teams, Sunday's defensive performance against the Bills and building chemistry with Aaron Rodgers. The show can be seen live at The Clubhouse Sports Pub & Grill in downtown Appleton or at clubhouselive.com.

Q: You made your season debut in a special teams role in Sunday's victory over the Bills. Is that the plan for now - to just slowly ease you back by playing on special teams? How do you see your role moving forward?

Jones: I have no idea. If I had an answer for you, I'd give it to you. But I have no idea. You've just got to control what you can control. Some certain people just think differently of you. It is what it is, but I'll do the best I can to try to get out there to make a difference. But if that's not in some people's plans, then so be it.

Q: Do you approach special teams with a different mindset than when you're playing safety?

Jones: I like to play for (Packers special teams coordinator) Ron Zook. I love that guy to death. So anything I can do for him is a plus. I don't mind it. Special teams is a part of the three phases of the game. That's a huge part. You can change the game by playing special teams. So it's fun to me.

Q: Your defense tallied its first shutout since the 2010 season. How satisfying was it to see those guys put together a complete game for the first time this year?

Jones: It was amazing. It's hard to shut out a team in this league, especially at this level. It's tough. So to be able to do that is rare. And it goes to show you the way this team just bounces back from playing Washington to put on that show they did this week (against Buffalo). It was fun to watch.

Q: In what area do you think the defense has grown the most under new coordinator Mike Pettine?

Jones: I feel like guys are just closer. Guys are just playing together, trusting the guy that's next to you knowing that he'll do his job and knowing that you don't have to cover for him. I feel like that's where we grew as a defense.

Q: What is the defense capable of going forward? How good can it be by the end of the season?

Jones: Obviously, we've shown flashes of being a championship defense - no doubt. We can't - like I always preach - get too high on the highs or too low on the lows. We can't start feeling ourselves, like getting too hyped about that game. We came in (Monday), corrected it, watched it. Everybody's feeling good. But now, just bury that game, put it away, and just go to Detroit and look forward to dominating them. That's how you've got to go - week by week.

Q: You finished with one catch for 38 yards and were targeted three times as you earned your first career NFL start against the Bills. What grade would you give yourself as you assess your performance?

Valdes-Scantling: I'd give myself a B-minus. I'm still learning everything. Knowing the playbook is one thing. But you've got a playbook, and then you've got Aaron's playbook that he has on the field. It's definitely different. It's just small details that you don't know until it's game time. And it's just things that you've got to gain with over time playing with him. Just learning where he wants you to be and how he wants things done. Because practice is one thing, but when you're in live action, it's a little bit different. So just having that full-game experience is good for me.
